Thread regarding Intel Corp. layoffs

To all the Intel ICs retiring this week

Thanks for your decades of hard work and wish you a happy retirement! You all (well, most of you) were instrumental in keeping Intel going. Your engineering expertise is going to be missed. Hundreds of years of collective technical know-how going away like that is just insane! Unsure how some of the big shoes are going to be filled. Unlike a software company, it takes ages for a hardware company to mature.
Would have liked to see some top and middle management go away rather than these valuable engineers.

Business can be up and down. Your contributions to Intel will never be missed. Deserve and enjoy your retirement and let others worry about it.

I have seen a few on LinkedIn and read their little goodbye speeches but it does dawn on me like how could you be bragging and giving yourself a pat on the back when you are leaving and the company is little smoldering in ruins. It just feels off. So all your “great hard work” and the company is absolute sh-t? What exactly did you do then? How can you hold your head up high? It’s boinkers. It’s like the engineers from Chernobyl coming around and saying they did an excellent job. Quite frankly it’s embarrassing to read these and I’m guessing most can’t read them with a straight face.

Yeah it is time for Intel managers to do the hard work that we carried for decades. We are now managing our time for vacations and parties outside of Intel

Thank you. I was there over 30 years. Started under Grove. Things really started to go sideways in 2012 or so, but the fast growing server market with cloud buildout hid the problems for quite a while. To the people bashing those of us leaving, go buy a clue. Those of us in the rank and file and lowest levels of management did everything we could. I fought the system tooth and nail these past 12 or so years. And many others did too. I am glad to be getting a nice package on the way out. It is all Intel has left for me now.

What! Fu-k them! They don’t deserve applause and a nice goodbye. THEY RUINED AN AMERICAN INSTITUTION! They caused this catastrophic and unsurvivable mess. They destroyed Intel. All of their careers amounted to sh-t. They are failures and should be treated as such. Not heros. They should be ashamed and embarrassed. 20-40+ years wasted by their incompetence and Idiocracy. All of them should crawl under a rock, stay quiet and hide. Poor excuses for engineers, etc. shame on them!

Thanks for navigating the company onto a collision course with the side of a mountain.

Agreed! Letting go hundreds of years of collective technical know-how away like that is just insane! I hate to say it, but keeping useless middle level arrogant managers are going to cripple the company very soon. Surprise to see some arrogant managers are laying off the good people but themselves.

I am wondering who is going to keep all the Intel drivers on millions on machines going if these old guys bite the dust? Is that already kids in India?
